Cannes Lions 2027
Cannes, France | 20 – 28 June 2027 | 8 nights
Cannes Lions is the world's most celebrated creative festival — the campaigns that will be studied and copied for the next decade get their first standing ovation here. This is the trip where you're in that room, then spend your evenings on the Riviera with a crew who gets exactly why this festival matters.
The Conference
The Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity is the world's premier gathering for marketing, advertising and creative industries, confirmed for 21–25 June 2027 at the Palais des Festivals — where the year's best campaigns are awarded and the next big creative ideas get their first airing. For anyone in marketing, PR or the creative industries, it's the single most prestigious festival on the calendar.
Conference entrance fee is not included in this package. Delegate passes are booked directly with the organiser — choose your pass type and register here: canneslions.com/register →
Your Day-by-Day
DAY 1 Sun 20 Jun
Touchdown on the Riviera
Fly via Istanbul into Nice, then a short transfer along the coast to Cannes and straight to Hôtel le Mistral — practically on top of the Croisette. Drop your bags and step outside into festival energy already building along the seafront. Welcome dinner tonight with the Neza Connect group, steps from the beach.
DAY 2 Mon 21 Jun
Cannes Lions Opens
A one-minute walk to the Palais des Festivals for the festival's opening day — the world's best creative campaigns on stage, agency leaders and brand marketers filling every corner of the Croisette. Spend the day between screenings, talks and the beachfront pavilions. This evening, dinner as a group at a Croisette-side restaurant, comparing notes on the day's best work.
DAY 3 Tue 22 Jun
Deeper Into the Festival
Day two of Cannes Lions — more award screenings, more industry talks, and the beachfront pavilion parties that make this festival famous. Evening free to soak in the Croisette's legendary after-hours energy with your group.
DAY 4 Wed 23 Jun
Festival Continues
Another full day of creativity on display — the shortlists narrowing, the buzz building toward the big award nights. Tonight, dinner in Le Suquet's old town, cobblestone streets above the harbour, a quieter contrast to the Croisette's energy.
DAY 5 Thu 24 Jun
Award Nights
The festival's biggest night — the Lions are awarded, and Cannes properly comes alive. Join the group for dinner and drinks as the city celebrates the year's best creative work around you.
DAY 6 Fri 25 Jun
Cannes Lions Closes
The final day of Cannes Lions — closing sessions and last conversations before delegates scatter home across the globe. Tonight, the group celebrates with a farewell dinner, toasting a festival well attended.
DAY 7 Sat 26 Jun
Half-Day City Tour
Badges off, into the city properly. A half-day tour takes in Le Suquet's old town, the harbour, and the Riviera's best viewpoints. Evening at leisure to soak in Cannes at a slower pace.
DAY 8 Sun 27 Jun
Sunset Cruise
As evening falls, the group boards a boat for a sunset cruise along the Riviera coastline — the Cannes skyline and the Estérel hills turning pink and gold, drinks in hand for one last big evening together.
DAY 9 Mon 28 Jun
Homeward Bound
Breakfast at leisure, then a transfer to Nice for your return flight home via Istanbul — landing back with new creative-industry contacts and a week at the world's most celebrated creative festival.
Where You'll Stay
Hôtel le Mistral, Cannes
3-Star · Palais des Festivals District
Le Mistral is Cannes at its most central — a boutique, design-led hotel tucked just steps from the Croisette, the beach, and the Palais des Festivals itself. During Cannes Lions week, this location is gold: everything the festival touches is within a five-minute walk.
Rooms are compact, soundproofed and stylishly finished, with blackout blinds for proper rest after long festival days and Italian showers to wake you up before the next one. The hotel's small scale means a warm, personal welcome — more boutique guesthouse than convention hotel, even during Cannes' busiest week of the year.
Step outside and you're immediately in it — the Croisette, the beach, and Cannes' best restaurants and cafés all within a five-minute walk.
✈ Distance to venue: approx. 50–300 metres from the Palais des Festivals — a 5-minute walk, meaning you're never far from the action during the festival's busiest week.
